Astudent conducts an experiment to determine how the amount of water given to a plant affects its growth. what is the independent variable for this experiment? a. the amount of water b. the height of the plant c. the amount of sunlight d. the amount of soil select the best answer from the choices provided a b c d

a. the amount of water is the answer because the idependet variable is the variable your changing and in this expermient there are changing the amount of water in the plants

he uptake of drugs from the intestine is often strongly influenced by diffusion. for example, consider a water-insoluble steroid for treating inflammation that is solubilized in aggregates of detergent molecules, called micelles. these micelles, aggregates of 80 soap molecules, have a molecular weight of 24,000, a diameter of 2.6 nm, and a charge of -27. the positively charge ions (counterions) in this system are na".
